Excerpt from Paris Green for the Codling-Moth Pure Paris green will dissolve wholly in ammonia (p. It will make a green streak on glass (p. And consists of green spheres, as seen under the microscope (p. The latter is the best test, but chemical analysis is neces sary to determine the grade, and. The presence of soluble white arsenic or arsenites (p. Freedom from soluble arsenical compounds and a known grade are essential in a spraying material (p. Laws have so far failed to recognize this (p. And better standards are essential (p. The Uni versity of California will condemn all samples of Paris green that are not pure (as s'hown by the microscope), or if they contain water-soluble arsenical compounds, or if they fall below fifty per cent of arsenious oxid (p. Under the present circumstances the use of substitutes for Paris green is recommended (p. These can be obtained ready-made, in considerable variety, but there is no assurance that their quality will be maintained (p. Home-made articles are the cheapest, are easily made, and have been quite thoroughly tested (p. But they require more care in handling because of the danger of poisoning (p. Other remedies for the codling-m'oth have been tried, and, under some circumstances, might be used to supplement spraying (p. Such as the use of bands (p. Destruction of windfalls (p. Destruction of moths in fruit-houses (p. And traps (p. While others, like winter spraying, are useless (p. Mistakes, often made, which should be avoided are as fol lows: Too few applications (p. Lack of uniformity (p. And failure to appreciate difference of location (p. 29) and season (p. The codling-moth can be fought effectively (p. The correct practice is that which brings the best return for time and money invested in treatment (p.

Excerpt from Common Fungus Diseases and Their Treatment This should be followed up by a summer treatment, consisting in the application of either the Bordeaux mixture or modified Eau céleste. Formulas and directions for the preparation of these and other fungicides are given on pp. 17 to 19. The Bordeaux mix ture presents one very decided advantage over the modified Eau céleste, in that it contains no ammonia, hence does not dissolve the arsenic compounds, and can therefore be used in conjunction with Paris green or London purple to prevent the attacks of the codling moth as well as of the scab fungus. The mixture should be made in the proportion of one pound of the arsenic compound (paris green or London purple) to 100 gallons of the fungicide, the former being stirred to a smooth paste with a little water and added to the latter.

Excerpt from Self-Boiled Lime-Sulphur Mixture as a Promising Fungicide Should the boiling be very prolonged the mixture might become caustic enough to burn foliage, although no such injury developed in the experiments. If it should be found in practice that the use of hot water dissolves too much sulphur, so that the foliage is injured, cold water may be substituted and a less intense heat thus developed, or the sulphur can be withheld until the lime has partly slaked, thus regulating the amount of sulphur dissolved. By this boiling process the sulphur is put in good mechanical con dition for spraying, and enough of it is dissolved to make the mix ture adhesive. As a large percentage of the sulphur is simply held in mechanical mixture with the lime water, it is necessary that the spraying outfit be provided with a. Good agitator, so that the mixture may be kept constantly stirred, and settling be thus avoided. In the treatment of apple trees, Paris green may be added for the con trol of the codling moth in the same manner as when Bordeaux mix ture is used.

Allotments are enjoying a renewed popularity because people want to know exactly what theyre eating, save money, eat seasonally and save on carbon footprints. As well as men, more and more women are taking up the challenge to create their own sustainable food source with allotments, as well as experiencing the enjoyment of seeing things grow, not just fruit and vegetables, but also flowers. As well as potatoes and sunflowers, exotic plants such as ginger and pak choi are being grown and people are running businesses from their allotment produce, tapping into the locally-sourced, seasonal food market. Gordon Thorburn shows how to make the best from your allotment or even a veg patch with tips on natural bug deterrents, companion planting (save your cabbages by planting marigolds amongst them) and a handy seasonal planner, as well as must-try recipes.

Survival in Toxic Environments is a collection of papers presented at a symposium held in Houston, Texas, in December 1973 and organized by the American Society of Zoologists, Division of Comparative Physiology and Biochemistry. Contributors focus on chemical pollutants, as well as the pollutants’ fate and disposition in the environment and bio-environmental effects. The specific pollutants and/or toxicants include pesticides, crude and refined oils, polychlorinated biphenyls, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, nitrilotriacetic acid, lead, carbon monoxide, and other supposedly less ominous xenobiotics. The dispositions of these substances and their effects are examined in either ecosystems and/or organisms, or components thereof. This volume is organized into five sections encompassing 21 chapters and begins with an overview of chemicals, how they are degraded, and how they affect living organisms. The first section discusses the impact of chemical pollutants, such as DDT, on the biology of organisms. The second section explores the detoxication mechanisms of survival in toxic environments, emphasizing halogenated hydrocarbons and their fate in microbes, houseflies, and fish. The reader is then methodically introduced to the role of the mixed-function oxidase and its components in survival in toxic environments, along with the trends in pesticide research. The final section considers non-pesticidal pollutants, such as NTA (a detergent builder), lead, and carbon monoxide, and their secondary effects. This book will be of interest to scientists and researchers in fields such as chemical pharmacology, chemical pathology, biology, zoology, ecology, agricultural chemistry, and entomology.

As well as examining successful biological control programmes this book analyses why the majority of attempts fail. Off-target and other negative effects of biological control are also dealt with. Chapters contributed by leading international researchers and practitioners in all areas of biological control afford the book a breadth of coverage and depth of analysis not possible with a single author volume. Combined with the use of other experts to review chapters and editorial oversight to ensure thematic integrity of the volume, this book provides the most authoritative analysis of biological control published. Key aspects addressed include how success may be measured, how successful biological control has been to date and how may it be made more successful in the future. With extensive use of contemporary examples, photographs, figures and tables this book will be invaluable to advanced undergraduate and postgraduate students as well as being a `must' for all involved in making biological control successful.
